摘要:The Sarajevo Convention, on which the Sarajevo Declaration and the Pact on Stability were adopted, is a kind of a finale to the ten-year conflict in the Balkan region. The most important pioneers in that dynamic process of Europe’s preparation for accepting the countries of Europe’s south-east have been the Brussels study by the Center for political analyses, the German “new politics” and the US support. The analyses of the goals and mechanisms of the Pact show that it is a major political instrument, though hailed as a mixed blessing. If all the actors – states, non-governmental organizations, associations, and individuals – are provided with long-term conditions for creating affiliations, joint views and projects, the process of building better relations may be initiated. The Europeisation of south-east Europe is going to be a lengthy and complex process, and the Pact on Stability may become an important form of building new relations in this region.
